Dana White brushes off the complaints about inefficient streaming during the UFC 257

The UFC pay-per-view revenue has always been tremendous despite the several streaming breakdowns. During the streaming of the UFC 257, for about an hour the viewers couldn’t watch the stream on the ESPN+ platform.

MMA and UFC Twitter exploded with hate and trolls as they weren’t able to view the stream after paying money. When asked about this, the UFC president, Dana White said that the issue was only for a short period.

He also justified it by saying “It was mostly on the West Coast”. He also told the reporters at the post-event press conference at Etihad Arena that, “But they got it fixed, and it was a good night”.

Before the Irish superstar got knocked out, Dana White also reached out to Khabib asking if he could do one more fight. The biggest grossing UFC has ever made was the UFC 229 when it featured two MMA giants, Khabib Nurmagomedov and Conor McGregor.
